The CS300 Bridge Module presents a new opportunity to combine the CS300 I/O structure with the
latest processing and communications features of Trusted
Combining the two products will enable CS300 users to benefit from features such as 3-3-2-0
Processor fault tolerance, IEC 1131 programming suite, Ethernet networks, OPC, Ethernet peer to
peer and remote diagnostics. The CS300 Bridge Module replaces the CS300 ICCB in the CS300
Primary chassis.

Expanders and I/O modules forming a Hybrid system. To the Trusted
and CS300 chassis appear in the same system map. All systems using Trusted
can be seamlessly integrated together.

1. Description
1.1. Overview
The CS300 Bridge Module enables connection between a CS300 I/O sub system and the TrustedTM
TMR Processor. Three CS300 Bridge modules replace the three ICCB modules in a CS300 primary
chassis.
The Bridge module has a fast serial ("Hotlink") interface that transfers command and response packets
between the two product families via the Trusted
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for decoding instructions from the Trusted
accessing the specified CS300 I/O module and returning any data requested.
Command data received by the three Bridge modules and responses to the Trusted
are synchronised in accordance with the Lock Step operational characteristics of the Trusted
Expander Bus. For this reason, the three bridge modules share their data and arrange their response
packets in the same order for simultaneous transmission. The clock signal received from the Expander
Bus is used to ensure that data from all three Bridge modules is transmitted on the same clock edge.
TM
The Trusted
TMR processor stores and executes the application program, scans and updates the
CS300 I/O modules and detects system faults. Each of the three slices of the TMR Processor
executes the application program independently, but in lock-step synchronisation with the other two.
All CS300 I/O actions are executed by polling only. This means that all CS300 I/O modules are
supported, with the exception of Serial I/O modules (which generate interrupts). All communications to
workstations and DCS systems are enabled through the Trusted

TrustedTM CS300 Bridge Module
1.2. Power Distribution
Each of the Bridge modules is powered from triple redundant PSUs (situated in a separate chassis)
that support the main I/O chassis with 5V, 12V & +/-20Vdc supplies and up to three CS300 extension
chassis with 12V and +/-20Vdc only.
1.3. Communication Busses
1.3.1. The TrustedTM to CS300 Primary Chassis
Communication between the TrustedTM Expander Interface Module and the CS300 Primary Chassis is
via one of a possible four or seven triplicated two-way interface cables. A single backplane connector
card routes the individual links in the cable to the three Bridge modules. Data voting is provided at the
Expander Module Interface to ensure that cable faults are detected.
The link handles the following triplicated signals:
Data - Serial bi-directional bus.
Control - Bus clocks, module-enables and bus direction control.
Slot - Indicating the CS300 I/O slot position to the Bridge.

Expander Chassis ID - 4 bit Trusted
chassis address code.
1.3.2. Inter-Module Link (IML)
When returning data for TrustedTM Read requests, I/O Module data received by each Bridge module is
shared with the other two using the serial IML via the backplane. The three sets of data are then
arranged sequentially into the response packet for Trusted
requests.

. The IML is not used during Write
1.4. Function
When an I/O access is to be performed, the TrustedTM TMR Processor issues a command packet to
an Expander Interface Module. The Expander Interface decodes the chassis address and transmits
the packet through an Expander bus to receivers in the 8162 Bridge modules.
For short distances of a few metres, a twisted-pair copper cable is used, whilst on longer runs the
copper cable is connected to three T8312 fibre optic units at each end of three pairs (Tx and Rx) of
fibre optic cable. The Bridge modules, receiving the command signals, decode the packet.
The Bridge modules then implement the read or write access on the CS300 I/O module selected and
return a response packet via the serial expander bus. The packet will contain both data and diagnostic
information.
